This is the oddest thing. I just read Gina V. say that none of the vets he knows support him. When they pretty much all do, including the Republicans.

Another odd thing is the impression certain posters here have that Kerry's testimony before the SFRC was personal opinion or some such thing. He was reporting the results of this investigation. I think you posted this important link:

lists.village.virginia.edu

I want someone who's impugned Kerry's war record to post what, in that investigation, the Senate didn't have a right to know, and also what should have been kept secret from the American people. The editorializing, many may disagree with. I would have left that out myself. But the eyewitness testimony?

This is from the opening statement:

..,
In these three days, over a hundred Vietnam veterans will present straightforward testimony-- direct testimony--about acts which are war crimes under international law. Acts which these men have seen and participated in. Acts which are the inexorable result of national policy. The vets will testify in panels arranged by the combat units in which they fought so that it will be easy to see the policy of each division and thus the larger policy. Each day there will be a special panel during the hours of testimony. ...Every witness throughout the three days will be available for cross-examination by the press after their initial statements and questioning by their fellow-vets who are acting as moderators.
